The only time I ever hear about a staff change outside my department in NY is via office gossip, or (if it's at a high enough level) by reading a British newspaper clipping in the daily press report. There is never a memo.
I am probably following this plot thread much more closely than it deserves, but it is so dead on in every way.
I also appreciated that Betty doesn't quite have her pre-baby figure back yet. There's a nicely visible post-partum jelly-belly.

But it's interesting to see that Weiner's attention to detail includes that stuff. It's one of the things I love about the show.

Yes! We noticed that too.
I saw this remark at a random blog I was reading for other reasons. It is about MM last night and the lawnmower incident:
I thought that the whole thing was was foreshadowing.
We had the handsome golden boy with the flawless 'curriculum vitae' and impossibly bright future brought down by a genuinely shocking and random act of violence just as he's settling into a position of power.
Then there were the little things - men jumping on the lawn mower (lawn->grassy knoll?) after the fact, the bloody dress, the transfer of power. Really well done.

Ooooh. I hadn't noticed all that, but it fits. Very nice!
Wow. I feel particularly unbright to NOT have noticed those things.
The bloody dress I got, but I don't see transfer of power, since it went back to the guy that it had had it before. If Don had moved into power, then maybe, but not this way.
The brits were particularly callous though "He'll never golf again"
Nice. Really nice reading of the events.
I thought that was both ridiculous and hilarious (the golf comment.)

Even with them, they could. Unless the UK has their own versions.
